Kinda reminds my of my 2010 Toshiba laptop touchpad. The pad was probably 2 inches wide and 1.6 inches tall, and it had special "quick zones" setup in each corner, and then scroll zones on the bottom and right side, and then "back" and "forward" zones at the top, and a window switch zone on the left. When you subtracted all the "reserved" space on the touchpad, the actual useable area was slightly larger than the top of my thumb... And gestures and tap to click was on by default. I don't know who tested that and was like "yeah, that's useable" but seriously, WTF dude.
